Explaining your reasoning and arguing your side is highly encouraged

(Also this would be more fun with a larger sample size so reblogs are appreciated)

save me allegorical monster… save me…. save me beast that serves as a literary symbol… save me

[callisteios]

hello. I've made another uquiz! it tells you what kind of supernatural creature you are give it a go :)

[lifenconcepts]

*because I don’t like to be perceived and that seem cool yeah

**Because I am a forever changing creature, I demand to be formless because I’m both everything and nothing, I can’t be defined or destroyed, never caught or set in stone - forever a tale carried on by mouth until inevitably fading into history and obscurity.

if you have any cool powers is subjective entirely on your own experience in media representations of that creature. You think vampires are immortal and can turn to bats? Well if you choose that then you are too. You think they can actual live in the daylight and eat garlic? Well so can you. You think they cant? Well, then you cant. It’s simple, really.

no “other”. no “multiple”. just pick one.

[arttsuka]

More Vampire Lupin? Maybe even with Jigen or Goemon?

Your art is absolutely adorable btw, have a great day!

Fancy vampire Lupin

I mean, I haven't decided about Goemon but Jigen is definitely werewolf coded (also silver bullets being one of the only effective ways to kill a werewolf and Jigen being like, a gunman is very poetic to me)

Vampire fans often fantasize about being vampires, and werewolf fans often fantasize about being werewolves, but zombie fans seem to only fantasize about killing zombies

The spooky month is upon us!

But before I begin my plans for Halloween festivities, I'd like to introduce you all to last year's Halloween yokai! These are some the first fankai I ever made and post(so go easy on them. XP)

First up, the vampire nemesis, Dracula and Desperatu!

These boys are my interpretations of characters from Bram stokers world famous Gothic horror novel, Dracula!

The titular character has already been name dropped in yokai watch before, however he has not made an on-screen appearance. So I corrected that~!

Dracula is an S rank, drain attribute of the shady tribe, with the soultimate "blood moon blitz" where he transforms into a swarm of bats to drain his opponents vitality!

Now the other guy is a bit more inspired! Desperatu is a portmanteau of Desperado(a term often used in wild west stories) and Nosfuratu(another word for Vampire). This Gothic cowboy is the spirit of Quincy P. Morris, which if you've actually read Dracula, you'd know as the man who got the killing blow on old drac!

Being a walking representation of the state of Texas, I played up his already present cowboy influence, and made him a vampire-hunting, cowboy vampire!

Desperatu is an S rank yokai of the brave tribe. He's a Merican yokai, a fire attribute, and has the soultimate "high moon showdown!" Where he fires of six shots from each of his silver-bullet-loaded guns.

If I were to ever make a game, these guys would be the Kyubi/venoct, Arachnus/toadel dude equivalents.

With the vamps out of the way, here's a werewolf! Or should I say, Blairwolf!

By day a young girl named Blair akafudo is a sporty outdoorsman with some mild canine quirks. But by night she's the fierce and a strong Blairwolf!

Like Dracula, we know werewolves exist in yokai watch, we've just never seen them. Though there was an academy Y episode that had weredog/jinmenkin hybrids. Speaking of hybrids, Blair also has some inspiration from the Okuri Inu, a ghostly black dog with piercing red eyes.

But despite her fierce inspiration, she's more like a were-puppy than anything. She's loyal, fun-loving and very affectionate toward her friends!

Blairwolf is D rank, earth attribute of the charming tribe. Her soultimate is called "Lycan-throw" where she digs up a Boulder to throw at her unsuspecting opponents!

Moving on to the next of the big three monsters, time for Frankenstein!

Say hello to Adam Frankenstein, the famous monster from Mary Shelly's sci-fi horror novel! Along with his shadowside form, Krankenstein!

The two forms represent the juxtaposition between the Monster in the book, who was an intelligent, tragic figure abandoned by his creator for his imperfect eyes, from the monster in the movie, which was a hulking, mindless brute.

Adam is normally intelligent and reasonable, but... he has quite the explosive temper if you can get him angry.

In both forms, he is an A rank, lightning attribute of the Eerie tribe. In his lightside, his soultimate is "Charged Adam" which boosts his stats. While his shadowside's is called "ITS ALIVE!" which boosts the entire parties stats!

Next are a more generic monster, a redesign I made of yokai watch style Zombies!

While I love yokai watch 3 and think zombie night was a brilliant idea, I can't say I've always liked their basic Zombie designs. The core part of a Zombie that makes them scary is they still resemble a human, and the yokai watch ones do, just not enough.

So, I ended up making more humanish Zombie designs. You could interpret these ones as more recently deceased then the ones in Canon. Haven't had as much time to rot just yet!

Next up, the spirit of Halloween himself, Stingy Jack/Jack O'Lantern!

The spirit of the man who managed to trick the devil herself, now forced to wonder the earth by lanterns light. Everyone's heard of this pumpkin headed freak in some way or other, even if they don't know his story.

Jack here is a C rank of the shady tribe. A fire attribute with the soultimate "lose your head!" Where he used the alcohol swishing around in his pumpkin head to make it into a molotov cocktail, and throws it at the enemy!

This of course also acts as a self destruct soultimate, because he doesn't have a head after using it. XP

And finally, a yokai late to the batch, but still fitting the Halloween vibes! Here's Potianna!

Ending things off with a wicked witch, Potianna (potion+anna) was one of the best potion brewers of her time, before the witch hunts finally caught up with her.

Now as yokai, she's fused to her beloved cauldron and keeps up her prized work~!

Potianna is a C rank, water attribute of the charming tribe. Her soultimate is called "Brutal Brew" where she dumps her cauldron onto the enemy team, both dealing damage and giving them a random debuff.

She also has a unique skill, "Alchemy" which heals her up every time she's hit with her own element!

I hope you enjoy these Halloween yokai of yesteryear, and look forward to this year's festivities~!

ZOMBIES, VAMPIRES, AND WEREWOLVES, OH MY

On Twitter, Wilson Cruz asked why people are so fascinated with Zombie movies/shows.

I couldn't resist giving my 2c:

Or, expanded a whole 47c worth:

Zombies embody our fears of the poor and disenfranchised.

(They will rise up, they outnumber us, they are dirty and wear rags and want to eat us.)

Vampires embody our fears of the rich.

(They prey on mere mortals, they slowly suck us dry, they seduce us, they are beautiful and well-dressed and own castles and we secretly want to become them.)

Werewolves embody our fears of ourselves.

(If the moon is right, and we lose control, we just might rip someone's face off. We are all savage beasts, and we're just barely holding this shit together. Also if someone murders a bunch of people in our town, let's be honest, it was probably one of us gone wrong.)

Halloween OC Ideas:

Just a random list of ideas to make OCs that fit the Spooky Season!

• A vampire who's scared of blood (hemophobia).

• A ghost who's really disappointed that ghosts don't look like the "white sheet with black eyes" interpretation, so they wear a bedsheet wherever they go.

• A zombie who gains the memories of every brain they eat, human or not, and cherishes them.

• 12 tiny aliens in a trench coat, trying desperately to make it work and fit in with the humans, unaware that every human in town knows they're aliens and is just pretending not to to make the aliens happy.

Bonus!

• A werewolf pack, but it's actually accurate to real life wolves and not the outdated "alpha, beta, etcetera". Basically, a werewolf family, with the parents being the leaders. Extra credit if the family has vampire neighbors.

I love that in the 2000s we had two franchises whose impetus was essentially "i love my gorgeous wife. I need to make 5-6 movies about my gorgeous wife Matrix-killing monsters in skin tight outfits."
